Saddam's Family "Safe in Syria"
(London Times) - The first wife of Saddam Hussein, their three daughters, and their grandchildren fled Iraq for Syria as American troops advanced towards Baghdad, according to the ousted dictator's son-in-law. Jamal Mustafa, who surrendered last week, is Saddam's last remaining son-in-law - he had the other two killed. By the end of last week American forces in Iraq had captured 12 of the 55 most wanted, but in Baghdad the rumors are that Saddam and his supporters are planning a spectacular guerrilla attack for April 28, his 66th birthday. In a palace owned by Uday Hussein, the American military found $650m in $100 bills, all in steel boxes.
